In Star Trek Online, the tutorials encompass the first few missions for each faction. With the help of several tooltip pop-ups, the player is slowly introduced to the game's UI and mechanics of ground and space combat.
The missions introduce the player to their faction's story and also provide the narrative for how they gain command of their first starship. These missions also award the first few bridge officers that players receive, notably [Elisa Flores], [K'Gan], [Tovan Khev], [Tarsi], and [Evelyn Savea].
They are non-repeatable but can be passed if the player has already played them on another character. If passed, the player will be taken through a different, accelerated arc of tutorial missions that takes much less time to complete, but is designed to bring the character to a similar level of development and aggregate rewards by the end of the arc.
Note, Dominion characters start at level 60 so do not have a tutorial as it is assumed they are familiar with the game's mechanics. They do however have a non-repeatable introductory arc: Engineered for War which cannot be passed, even if the player has already played the arc on another character.

The original Starfleet tutorial missions (below) came with the launch of the game. They were replaced by the current tutorial in 2013. Both the original and the replacement tutorial feature the Borg attack on Vega IX, although the former focuses entirely upon it and has a larger role for the Khitomer Emergency Medical Hologram (voiced by Zachary Quinto).

In addition, Tour First City originally served as a Klingon tutorial. The majority of it is still in-game, however, as a sidequest.
